week 5

I did not pull this week.  The bald areas are still very sparse.  There is some hair coming in but the scalp is still very visible.  It's better than the last time because the hair is growing faster.  The Nac is working well.  My urges are really low.  Even the urge to play with my hair is low.  I never felt this free of urges before.  In the past when I had stopped for 6 months, I still had the urge to touch my hair constantly.I wish I would have tried this supplement years before.  It was so stupid of me not to try it.

Still reading back on your journal here. So I was reading your urge to pull was really low when on NAC. I am presuming you took / take 2400 mg per day, as I saw you mention it somewhere? I also read in your recent post to me at Beating Trich that it took 2 wks for NAC to start kicking in. I can\'t spare 2 wks at the rate I am going, pulling every night for hours :( But if you don\'t mind, I would like to check in with you via private msg as I need some support in this quest to stop pulling and get all my hair back. I am finding this forum is not active like it used to be and I would appreciate a support buddy.
